To: ED at MIT-AI CC: CUBE-HACKERS at MIT-MC Er, perhaps I don't understand the move you describe, but in any case, by my calculations it would take 1260 repetitions to come back home doing that one (1260=2^2*3^2*5*11). It is certainly the case that 1260 > 216 so that number must be wrong (I could be miscalculating, but I don't see how). 1260 is rather similar in appearance to 216, perhaps you spazzed somehow?
